Fans Lose Their Cool After Shardul Thakur Wears Number 10 Jersey That Belonged To Sachin Tendulkar
Shardul made his debut against Sri Lanka in the fourth ODI
Shardul Thakur made his debut against Sri Lanka in the fourth ODI. But more than his bowling it was his jersey number that attracted everyone's attention. After all, he was wearing the number 10 jersey that once belonged to Sachin Tendulkar.
Die-hard Sachin fans didn't lap this up well. And were pretty disgruntled on social media.
When it comes to Indian cricket, fans think Sachin Tendulkar, despite his retirement from ODI cricket, will always remain the rightful owner of the number 10 jersey. The Mumbai Indians had retired the jersey number 10 soon after Tendulkar's retirement. There were also talks that the BCCI would also retire the number 10 jersey from Team India forever.
Shardul Thakur! The 2nd Indian Cricketer to sport a Jersey No.10 after Sachin Tendulkar?! #SLvIND
